- **fixed** — Support for setting "init only" parameters using the config option of createWorker, such as load_number_dawg

##### What's Changed
* Fixed support for setting "init only" parameters using `config` option of `createWorker` (#862)
   - For example, `load_number_dawg` is an "init only" parameter that cannot be set using either `worker.setParameters` or the `options` argument of `worker.recognize`.
   - However, `load_number_dawg` can be set by the following `createWorker` statement. 
      -  `createWorker('eng', "0", {}, {load_number_dawg: "0"});`
* Improvements to documentation
